Frequently Asked Questions about the Volkswagen Super Beetle
The Volkswagen Super Beetle was an upgraded version of the Beetle that Volkswagen sold alongside the standard car starting with the 1971 model year. MacPherson struts replaced the torsion-bar front suspension, the nose was longer, and the spare wheel lay flat under the trunk floor, which gave more luggage room up front. Volkswagen's own designations for it were 1302 and, from the 1973 model year, 1303.
The Volkswagen Super Beetle came out for the 1971 model year in the United States. Volkswagen introduced the car in Europe as the 1302 in August 1970. The revised 1303, with a curved windshield and padded dashboard, replaced the 1302 in August 1972 and reached American buyers as the 1973 Super Beetle.
Volkswagen stopped building the Super Beetle sedan in July 1975, when 1303 production ended at the Emden plant, and 1975 was the last model year for the sedan in the United States. The convertible carried on alone until the last one was built on January 10, 1980.
A Volkswagen Super Beetle can be identified by its front end. The spare tire lies flat in a well under the trunk floor instead of standing upright, and the front suspension uses MacPherson struts with coil springs instead of torsion bars. From the 1973 model year the Super Beetle also had a curved windshield and a padded dashboard. The 1971 and 1972 cars kept the same windshield as the standard Beetle.
The Volkswagen Super Beetle sold in the United States used an air-cooled 1600 flat-four. It was rated at 60 horsepower when the model arrived for 1971, and fuel injection arrived in 1975. In Europe, Volkswagen offered the 1302 with a 1.3-liter engine of 44 PS and the 1302 S with the 1.6-liter engine, which the factory rated at 50 PS.
Karmann built the Volkswagen Super Beetle convertible in Osnabrück, Germany. From the 1971 model year every Beetle convertible sold in the United States was a Super Beetle, and the open car stayed in production after the Super Beetle sedan was dropped in 1975. The last one left the Karmann line on January 10, 1980.
Yes, Volkswagen sold several special-edition Super Beetles in North America. The Sports Bug appeared for 1973 and the Sun Bug for 1974. The La Grande Bug followed for 1975, the Super Beetle sedan's last model year. After the sedan ended, the convertible received the Champagne Edition in 1977, which continued into the 1978 model year.
